Everything playing in her mind like she experienced everything on her own. Her mind stops the fast forward button on her birthday mid-night. Over then, Anika and Shivaay wrote their boards and waiting for the Result. Officially, The school closed including the hostel. Shivaay was about to go back to his orphanage, But he didn't as Anika's Birthday was approaching. He stayed with his friend in his room. He didn't make much preparation as Anika stopped him from doing that when she sensed He had to work during his exams in order to make her birthday unforgettable. She took a promise from shivaay that he won't do any stupid things on her birthday and concentrate on his exams. On his last academic year, Shivaay's orphanage was ready to pay his whole 10% of his fees and relieved him from working overtime. Shivaay was surprised but he didn't think about it much. He worked on weekends for his own purpose, Anika didn't stop him from doing that, As she knew, He never accepted anyone's charity, Including Anika's. 

The time reached 12, Wishing happy birthday exactly at 12 wasn't habit for anyone in her house. Her Daadu usually wishes her in the early morning. Her Daadi wishes her when she comes to dinning for the breakfast and In the evening, There will be a huge party in her garden, Inviting the most of the VIP's in Dehradun along with some of her friends who are equals to their standards. That's when Anika's dad, Rishab Kapoor shows up, More than her, Her grandparents are happy to see him. And wishes her with two warm words, HAPPY BIRTHDAY along with the gift. Anika never opens any of the gifts which were presented by him on her birthday. She accepts the gift from him and goes to her room, Keep it in her cupboard without even opening any one of them. She never needed gift from him but Love, which she lasted for years. This year, She was feeling full-filled because she had someone who loves her truly by her side. Anika was sure, Whatever happens, His love for her will be constant. She was sure Until she has Shivaay by her side, She needed no-one in her life. 

She usually fell asleep as soon as she goes to bed. But on that day, Sleep refused to knock her door. She tried a lot but she couldn't able to sleep. She had no idea, What was going in her mind, Whether she was excited or not, But She was sure, On this birthday, Life will definitely give her many surprises. Over then, Her phone beeps with a call. She peeped out from her blanket and saw her phone. Shivaay's number flashes on the screen. She grabbed her phone in an instant and answered. 

"Hello..." - She responded. 

"Hey, Nobody allowed to sleep this much deep on their birthday..." - He responded in an exciting tone. She chuckled. 

"Well, That rule didn't applicable to me, As, in my house, My birthday officially starts in the morning..." - She said with a chuckle. But Shivaay understood her hidden feelings over the phone. 

"That rule going to break from this year... The celebration starts from this spot..." - Shivaay said with the cherished tone. Anika stood up from her bed. She never wanted him to spend his precious money wasted on her birthday. 

"Wait, WHAT? SHUT THE HELL UP" - She outburst. 

"Madam, I didn't screw my savings, I swear..." - He surrendered. 

"If you have done that, I would have screwed you by now..." - She replied coldly. 

"Okay, My Angry bird, Can you please come to your balcony and give your auspicious sight to me, I am waiting nearer to your building gate, And it's too colddddd...." - He exclaimed.

"You definitely became mad..." - Anika exclaimed while rushing outside wearing her Sandles. She saw shivaay sitting in his friend's motorbike. He was wearing a blue hoodie where his one hand holding the phone which he was speaking. And the other hand, He buried inside his pocket. As soon as, She emerged out, Shivaay passed a vibrant smile. 

"You're mad..." - Anika swore. 

"Mad in love..." - He replied back which made her chuckle at the spot. 

"Shut up... You're changing my mood..." - She said along with the chuckle. 

"Changing the mood in the sense..." - He asked her over the phone. 

"Don't try to copy me, Double meaning dialogues only suits me, Not you..." - She said and made her way towards the gate. 

"I hope the watchman is asleep..." - She said, Shivaay confirmed her, She sneaked out of her house and ran towards shivaay with a wide smile. 

"You mad little girl, Where's your sweater?" - He asked her when she stood before him. Without thinking once, She hugged him in an instant leaving him in a jerk. 

"Now i am not feeling cold..." - She whispered in his ears. He hugged her back with a smile. 

"Okay, Shall we go for a ride?" - He asked when she broke the hug with a smile. 

"Ride? Your friend's bike, Right?" - Anika asked him. 

"He went out of town for his sister wedding... So his bike, his room and his bed are all mines for three days..." - Shivaay exclaimed with a smile. Anika was very delighted to see his smiling face. Anika gets on to the bike before Shivaay, Leaving the space for him in the front. He smiling take the seat in the front. He started the bike, Anika held his waist before it started to move. The climate turned unconditionally romantic. Anika kept her chin on his shoulder and delighted him with kisses on his cheeks every passing minute. He didn't deny her but Shivaay feels like it was not her birthday but his birthday. 

"So I was thinking... If your roommate is not available tonight, Shall i take his place... I heard there are many ghosts nearer to your building... Having me, you will definitely feel safer... So what you say, Mr Oberoi..." - Anika asked him, He stopped his bike out of sudden. Anika was shocked when he turned around her shockingly. 

"If you don't want my company, It's okay... But think, A virgin boy, Under the threats of ghosts... Oops, what will happen if they gang-raped you..." - Anika stopped while cupping her face. 

"Anika... Can you please close your mouth for a while? And get down..." - Shivaay asked. 

"I was talking for your safety... You know ghost usually target virgin boys..."- Anika said. 

"Then, It must have hunted my friend first..." - Shivaay asked her. 

"I am repeating, Ghost usually hunt VIRGIN boys..."- Anika said when she got down from the bike. 

"I hope that ghost is not scarier than you..." - He said while taking the blindfold from his pocket and tied around her eyes. 

"What are you doing?" - She asked him. 

"Shoo... Don't ruin my surprise..." - Shivaay responded and wrapped his arms around her shoulder and took her inside the restaurant where he was working. Anika couldn't figure out where he's taking because of the darkness.

"I will bite you to death if you planned something special for me by wasting your money..." - Anika said. 

"Bite me...?!? Oh my god, Why you blessed me with vampire girlfriend... And my lovely birthday girl, You deserve something more than money... That is..." - He untied the blindfold. Anika opened her eyes and jumped in happiness.

"Oh my god... You did this..." - She asked him while looking at the red rose Garden which planted in the first letters of their name, S and A in between there was a heart symbol. 

"Oh my god... I feel like i in heaven right now..."- She exclaimed in happiness while cupping her mouth in happiness. 

"This is what you deserve... My Everlasting love for you..." - He said and held her palms and took her in the middle of the heart. Anika couldn't able to believe whether she's dreaming or It was happening for real. She was surprised when he went on his knee. 

"Oh my god!" - She exclaimed in happiness. 

"On this special day, I will promise you that even i am there or not there in this world, My love for you always remains true and there for you..." - He said. Anika knees went weak, She thudded on the ground and held his hands. 

"You have no idea, how special i am feeling now... I got most precious gift of my life before one year... I promise you, This heart will have only one room, That room only belongs to you... Mr Shivaay Singh Oberoi, From this moment, will you be my everything?"  - She asked him. He held her palms and kissed in returns ignoring tears rushing from his eyes. Both wiped their tears. 

"You recognized?" - She asked him. 

"What?" - he asked her. 

"We already became one..." - She responded while pulling his head close to her. He cupped her face and kissed her lips gently, Her eyes automatically shut when he slowly sucked her lower lip. she pulled him over the floor. There were lying in the middle of the heart. He continued to kiss her lips, Gently. He broke the kiss and looked at her.

"Happy birthday, My love..." - Shivaay whispered in her ears and rested next to her while looking at the night sky. She moved to his chest and placed her head in his chest. 

"The best birthday, Ever..." - She whispered. He kissed her in her hair.
